> I was referring to the colloquial referral as Hamas to all Palestinian organizations in Gaza.

This is a pretty big part of the problem, yes.
Love the idea, but isn't the "indexing" part of many editors and language servers already? Ctags and stuff? Never got the impression that to be a huge problem on modern hardware.

I doubt, there will be much demand for throwing large non-public code bases into third party services... However, I can totally see how this would be a hit as a FOSS project.
I would say yes. There is no way I would ever purchase something with Musk as the CEO. He's just too problematic.

It's crazy to me he would go out of his way to alienate his customer base over something as divisive as politics. PR 101. Bonkers.
It's probably just me, but the video in these video calls is mostly a waste of bandwidth, I am never paying attention to the bobbing heads in the screen. My point being, I, for one, would not notice very quickly if the person speaking was just a loop of someone looking interested, I sort of want to do this myself, OBS is probably the key, when called to speak you could switch scenes to the live feed.

I did some research into using ffmpeg as a sort of live network based video router and compositor, My conclusion was that it would work. however my heart was set on actual transparent rgba video and support for that was finicky.
I don't usually mix, so much as just forget. C is my first proficient language. But honestly, if I step away from it for just a few months, I will forget things even like the syntax for how to declare a struct (there's an ; after }), let alone nuances like operator precedence.

I've got various cheatsheets I like to refer to.
Then why don't they just hire women to do the exact same jobs as men and save a ton of money? You're still not offering a rationale for why companies aren't making use of an easy way to reduce labor costs. Which is more likely: that companies hate women so much that they're willing to ignore an opportunity to make a massive leap in profitability? Or perhaps you need to read your studies more closely and it's not the case that men and women are paid differently for the same work?

Your study on nurses offers an explanation in the article:

> Male nurses also reported working more hours per week, at an average 39 hours plus five hours of overtime, while female nurses reported working an average of 37 hours plus four hours of overtime.

I agree that if you just count the W-2s and ignore hours worked, subfields, travel, etc. then men make more than women. My whole point is that this kind of comparison is naive.

Likewise your study on lawyers grouped a hugely varied profession all into the same category. As an analogue, take doctors. Yes male and female doctor have different average incomes even for the same level of experience. But that doesn't capture the fact that over 70% of anesthesiologists are male while in pediatrics it's the opposite. This one will have an income disparity even when men and women are equally paid for the same work. It's a similarly naive analysis to lump together all lawyers into one category.
That's a pretty apt comparison I'd say.

However, with JavaScript you have to avoid the old/outdated language constructs, and some warts need to remain, since browsers still need to support old websites. Perhaps in the future we can specify "ECMAScript version" (similar to perl) so old stuff can be thrown away and the VM can optimize without having to worry as much about backwards compatibility.
That gives you two bits of data, which is designed to not be easy to fingerprint with.

I personally don't care about Musk's reputation. I was hoping that the Model 3 prices will go down and the build quality go up. In my opinion it is simply not worth $40K or so.
The way in which the entire industrial and military might of the country joined forces is hard to imagine today. I suppose the pandemic is a good example of this but nowhere near the breadth of WWs or the cold war.

Every state has different possibilities. Real estate course required by the state, traffic school, driver ed, etc. Look at each state DMV licensing website and look for "course providers" and you can make a course and get onto the State list. All you have to do is get it approved and do any sort of yearly re-approval and you good. People go to the list, pick a course, you provide some sort of certificate (I make a PDF) or submit back to the state with an api. Once your approved it is easy from then on out.

> It helps to bear in mind that ... people elected by the local population as a sort of overseer ... generally ensures that they have absolutely no clue what they are doing

A while ago I came to the conclusion this is true in general of almost all politicians. What triggered it was the conservative side of Australian politics have been fighting the good fight against climate change activism and renewables in particular for 15 years now. Currently they are pushing SMR's as the solution to climate change. As far any anyone can tell it's a delaying tactic because they know they won't work.

The conservatives have held the levers of power federally 8 of the last 24 years, so obviously Australia must be a basket case when it comes to shifting to renewables - right? As best they have slowed it down, slightly. Australia leads the world in roof top solar, and coal plants are being closed at record rates. Similar examples could be raised for the other side of politics, particularly in education.

Apparently leading the country isn't what politicians do if you look at outcomes, because evidently no one is actually doing what they command. Instead in Western Societies optimising our way around the laws they make. Which is probably just as well, because as far as I can tell the pollies don't anything notably well, and that includes playing politics. That's probably true for the very reason you give, they are elected in a way that doesn't select for qualifications, skill or competence.

That raises a question, as it appears countries who elect their politicians based on something other than competence nonetheless do well economically. Under the Westminster system decision making seems to be deferred to private enterprise and a government bureaucracy that overseas the rules private enterprise operates under. To me that says the politicians must doing something else that is useful. That would be to "take the blame", as you say. We elect them with high hopes, we blame and abuse them for everything that goes wrong for 10 years or so, then replace them with a new punching bag. Behind the scenes the people who actually capable of running the country get to keep their jobs for decades.

In the recent movie "Golda" (which I recommend), Golda Meir gives a piece of advice to an up and coming military commander Benjamin Netanyahu: "they will make you prime minister, but remember the career of every politician ends in failure".
Although the discussion structure may be different from Fb/Twitter-like platforms, how does this approach mitigate or go around algorithmic curation issues? It's long been know that posts or comments that are visible 'above the fold' promote certain (popular) ideas while occluding the varied long tail. Discoverability, in a way, still needs to be taken into account.
Yeah but it's going to be easy to tell they're bullshitting. They'll always be 2 steps behind the state of the art, so they'll make straw men arguments like judging LLMs without using RAG to provide a hierarchical index of medical codes. Anyone current on AI papers will immediately spot the issues, where investors and the public will not.

This leaves a huge opportunity for open source systems which provide better diagnostics for free, but will require us to hustle. Then, the open source users among us, at least, can pioneer free and open AI augmented health care. That can become a popular option once there's strong evidence that our virtual doctors are just more competent and understanding.

I am excited about the idea that one day soon I'll have a doctor that listens to me, understands the current science and evidence about my conditions, and does not sideline me because I'm autistic, anxious, and obsessive. And we might get to help build it and make it free for everyone!
> It’s hard to understand how someone could fall for this scam… if a loved one was having an emergency of some kind I would expect them to call rather than text, and I would respond with a call either way to discuss the details.

I think elderly are more vulnerable to this, because they get scared and want to help.

My elderly mother fell victim to a "microsoft" and "paypal" technician calling her twice, despite my training her on how not to pick up the phone from these calls and going over how nobody from these companies would ever call her. She got nervous and scared and basically did whatever the scammers told her because she thought something was wrong with her computer.

Now after it's happened twice :she has been reminded not to answer any calls from number she doesn't know. But she still gets nervous she is going to miss something important from health insurance or doctors office so she is still tempted to pick up spam calls.

It's tough, no matter how much I train her she will still want to answer and "help" the scammer. They keep doing this because it works.

I need to just lock her phone down so all callers not in her contact list go to a voicemail I screen. :-/

This thinking links to how corporate debt has being valued theoretically, starting with the work of Merton [1], by looking at debt as an option with non-linear payoff. The borrower can put the busted assets to the lender.

In practice there are countless important complications that make a naive option theoretic analysis very incomplete, e.g., getting into debt makes a lot of sense if you can count on a bailout if things go pear shaped.

Sigh. I know that dunking on the EU is increasingly a HN meme because most of you lot work for companies that feel threatened by governments with teeth, but “governments waste money!!!” in as much as it is an accurate stereotype is not localised to the EU by any means.

Android and iOS have largely the same threat model with it comes to platform security. That is, app review mostly does not exist and the OS itself must protect the user.
I would not generalize. Different countries have different police forces. It's true that police will reflect some of the problems of their society (either violence, racism or others), but even that might be more or less strong tendency.

You need threading and ability to crosslink posts, then each person should have a custom LLM that can summarize a thread for them in terms of: a) highest scores/most insightful points, b) common points of view that they would disagree with for balance, and c) points made that they agree with.

Hopefully c) would discourage people from reposting the same points, b) might give people alternative perspectives, and a) is just good information or insight.

I think quality discussion will come down to having less redundant discussion and rage posting.
It's about the money that can be made with it. It was never and will never be about what it can or can't do well.
They are correct in saying it's a reliable floor. From AP:
>HOW DOES THE MINISTRY ARRIVE AT A DEATH TOLL?

>Gaza’s most widely quoted source on casualties is Health Ministry spokesperson Ashraf al-Qidra. From an office at Shifa Hospital in Gaza City, al-Qidra receives a constant flow of data from every hospital in the strip.

>Hospital administrators say they keep records of every wounded person occupying a bed and every dead body arriving at a morgue. They enter this data into a computerized system shared with al-Qidra and colleagues. According to screenshots hospital directors sent to AP, the system looks like a color-coded spreadsheet divided into categories: name, ID number, date of hospital entry, type of injury, condition.

Given this, it is entirely possible that there are additional dead that otherwise do not make it to the hospital morgue, those lost in rubble, those left behind, or cases were the violence was so great there is no body to note. To your question Hamas has made a point to be conservative and validate the death tolls, meaning that there are likely a great number of dead that don't reach these standards and are not counted.

I'd say the Model 3 is OK for its price. It's the Model S' price that is outrageous compared to its build quality / material used for the interior. A Model S or Model S Plaid with options is in luxury car territory price-wise and yet its interior is not anywhere near luxury.

And I find the Model S good looking FWIW. And I admire Tesla for the quality of its batteries.

Not all debt is created equal. There is a really crucial distinction here that the author doesn't mention. Debt to finance consumption is very different than debt to finance production. The former narrows your volatility window permanently, but the latter only does so temporarily. Once you get past that, the window widens again and stays wider than it would have been without the debt. As long as the productive asset returns more than the cost of servicing the debt to acquire it, you win. Of course, that's a big if, but it happens regularly, and it's something that really needs to be taken into account when making these kinds of decisions.
That does not prove lack of control of the border by Israel. It just proves that Egypt controls it from their side.
not implying anything in that regard, I can imagine a clever attack which involves a local malicious dhcp implementation
Conscription is undemocratic by design.

If the democratic majority wants to fight, you have more than enough volunteer soldiers to either win (or lose ~1/2 of your population...). If you can't get any volunteers any more, their opinion on if they want to fight or not is already known, even without a democratic referendum.

...at least if you only count the votes of people whose opinion actually matters here.
Money for sure, but I don't think of Microsoft a moving relatively fast - at least by tech standards.
Just to throw in a thought on this..

I agree that "meant to have" and "deserve" are the wrong concepts here. But reality and practicality are what they are.

If I work hard and save my earnings, with the intention to buy something which we agree is a "valid" need/want (whatever that something is), and then lose the money through some circumstance that we we agree is "not my fault", that really sucks and I don't claim that it affects how much I "deserve" the thing (whatever deserve means), but the reality is that I now don't have the money to buy that thing. Am I going to now borrow money because "I worked hard and I deserve it"? Some would, others wouldn't.

I agree. Its way beyond what today's average user wants.

Not always. Some VPNs have a kill switch feature for closing specified programs. Hopefully in addition to the firewall rule.
Kind of in the same boat. The car I own is rock solid, and the one mobile repair I needed was done within hours of me having put in the request.

The guy also repaired something else he spotted, which I appreciated, but it got me thinking about how the people who put my car together will never know about that there's something they might be able to fix before cars ever roll off the line. The guy said "I see these on every car I service, and just hit 'em. I don't bother with paperwork," when I asked if he'd add a line item for the secondary repair.

It's things like this where I think Tesla stumbles. The repair guys shrug didn't sell confidence - it shrank it for me. If they're brushing off the little stuff, what else don't they care about? It just felt sloppy.

To be fair though, it's about 5% that, and 95% Musk that turn me off of Tesla right now. I live in a very "red" state, and a stranger in the parking lot the other day barked out "how's it feel to be Musk's bitch." Words don't hurt, sure, but the guy might have had a point.
I'm not saying how it should be implemented, I'm saying how it is implemented by a number of popular VPN services. Take up the argument with them. There are VPN providers that do it right on at least some platforms, but unfortunately the way most document it it's very hard to tell without experimenting with the client to verify.

As far as I know, use of the term "kill switch" closely correlates with an untrustworthy implementation. Consider the case of Mullvad who handle this a lot better and also decline to call it a "kill switch" for that reason. And that's not to say that Mullvad is perfect, easy to find forum threads by people who had traffic leakage for various reasons. I wouldn't trust anything you didn't set up yourself.

Ditch the Aggregate devices for a start ( yes it’s expensive running a lot of inputs or outputs on a proper system, and you don’t take advantage of all the interfaces built into gear). Uninstall Blackhole and spend the money on Rogue Amoeba stuff.

Buy audio interfaces with good drivers (e.g. RME, Lynx, Metric Halo or even MOTU AVB stuff and stay away from Antelope - they have problems), install, plugin and away you go.

Instead of expanding all data to UTF-32 you can expand in chunks of some fixed amount, say, 1024 characters; so memory usage is capped, the UTF-8 unpacking can be unrolled/SIMD whatever, and the thing iterating over codepoints is trivially branchless (can even be its own SIMD). Annoying downside being potentially some wasted computation if the iteration is early-exited, but even then you could have something like doubling chunk size on each chunk, starting with 8 chars or something.
> Money only works because we all agree to believe in it.

Respectfully, this is the type of true-that-sounds-deep statements that are absolutely shallow and pointless. Yes money the "paper" is not worth anything, but the same could be said of anything in an organized society. Ownership means nothing, it's just a title backed by the government which has a monopoly on violence. Ethics means nothing, it's just something we culturally decided was desirable because if you feel a-ok with murder any trip anywhere would turn into a blood bath.

At this point it should be a named fallacy (maybe it is), if we are discussing the merits of debt as a tool, saying "money isn't worth anything" as if it means something is not some ground breaking statement.

> You can also evaluate debt loads by debt-to-income ratio, which is not to be overlooked

Debt to income is literally the first thing I wrote in my comment. I didn't overlook it.

The absolute value of a debt is a meaningless number so "more debt" should always be evaluated in that context. And that's how I took the comment I originally responded to. Some extremely obvious things are being rehashed for no apparent reason in this thread.

When evaluating relative debt load, asset values should have a multiplier to reflect both liquidity and volatility.
